Hillary Clinton acknowledges voters are absolutely right to be 'furious'

Rather than try to assuage voters' frustrations Thursday night, Hillary Clinton admitted Americans were absolutely justified in feeling that way. "Some of you are frustrated, even furious, and you know what? You're right," Clinton said during her speech at the Democratic National Convention.

Clinton admitted that, right now, the economy is "not yet working the way it should." "Americans are willing to work and work hard," Clinton said. "But right now an awful lot of people feel there is less and less respect for the work they do." Becca Stanek
